@natalie_ng It’s very likely. That was the whole purpose behind the Model Minority myth. They brain drained the best and the brightest out of Asia and used them as coolies 2.0 and then told Blacks

“Look, just pull yourself up the da bootstraps. America is great. Anyone can succeed. It’s your fault.”

Speaking of bootstraps…

@tour_operator I don’t think anyone here was saying that Christianity or any type of religion/fanaticism is the only contributing factor to white imperialism or the upholding of white supremacy but that it’s one of the many aspects of it that shouldn’t be ignored.

@natalie_ng At this time it’s just a dream, but I think Asians should seriously consider it - especially their native nation’s governments. I’d like to see a reverse brain drain.

@bugoutfever Bigwowo wrote about this before IIRC. There’s definitely a large amount of brainwashing. Other factors include the:

● absence of the many sordid chapters of Asian American history (genocidal wars, Opium Wars, Japanese concentration camps in North America, massacres of Chinese coolies, Watsonville riots, McCarthyism, etc).

● Black vs White focused narratives. This focus even largely hides the suffering of Native Indians who arguably have it worse than Blacks, but few seem to know or care.

● Model minority myth that presents all Asians as some prosperous monolith who should be grateful for what they have. This also doubles as a meat shield for whites so other disenfranchised minorities attack us for “taking from them”. Deluded Asians don’t understand this and end up thinking they’re just like whites, which means they’re “guilty” for crimes of white people.

@secondstrike That’s true. There are a ton of hot Asian and Asian-American guys but western society likes to draw attention to and focus on the William Hung types, out of fear of Asian men attracting too many women.
